      When defining the UCM Baseline parameter, if the Exclude element CHECKEDOUT is checked, the job systematically fails when creating the view's config spec.
      The error message is :

      — config spec start —
      element "/mts_tools/HudsonAdm/..." B_HUDSONADM_V01_E24 -nocheckout
      element * /main/0 -ucm -nocheckout
      load /mts_tools/HudsonAdm/Controler
      — config spec end —
      [HUDSON_CTRL_B_HUDSONADM_V01_E24] $ /usr/atria/bin/cleartool setcs -tag HUDSON_CTRL_B_HUDSONADM_V01_E24 ../configspec50873.txt
      cleartool: Error: The first element rule of a snapshot view's config spec must be "element * CHECKEDOUT".
      cleartool: Error: Config spec semantic processing failed.
      cleartool: Error: Unable to change configuration specification: error in configuration specification.
      FATAL: ClearCase UCM baseline failed. exit code=1

      Note that it works correctly if the checkbox is not checked. But it means that we cannot ensure that checkedout versions are not loaded, which is a critical problem when building or testing stable configuration.

          Hey Jean-Luc,

          I don't think this is a bug: The error occurs becuse CC's snapshot views must have the element * CHECKEDOUT instruction. To not have it, you need to use a dynamic view. Also, if you're using CCLT, element * CHECKEDOUT must always be there.

          HTH,
          Romain

          Hi Romain,

          I just have tried to create a snapshot view, then I suppressed the element * CHECKEDOUT rule.
          I obtained the following error :
          The first element rule of a snapshot view's config spec must be "element * CHECKEDOUT"

          So, OK... it is not a bug.
          But It would be more user friendly if the R/O option disappeared when selecting a snapshot view... No idea if it is feasible or not...

          OK. I've renamed the issue to reflect the need to disable the option when using a snapshot view (actually this is explained in the inline help but it's true that it's not visible). I'll try to see what I can do on the UI side. Not sure I can deactivate the checkbox, but I should be able to at least display a warning message.

          Fixed by using a warning message; Will be shipped with next release
